-- shocker: police OK to rough up the deaf
It is a shocker. The president of the Police
Association said:
Police officers are OK, and will continue,
to use force if necessary
Who said that? The Police Association in
New Zealand. Just hope all police associations
in USA disagree with this New Zealand comment!

-- confessions of a functional deaf person
DeafDigest has mentioned several times about
Richard Emerson, New Zealand's #1 beer
brewer, who is deaf but functions as a
hearing person. Speaking of his deafness,
he said:
Much of my beer promotion work is in special
events where I get tired, trying to lipread
many strange lips and trying to figure out
what they are saying. These people forget
that I am deaf. And also my speech is often
hard for strangers to understand.
